How can a post about the environment have anything to do with Arabic? Well, wait a minute, I'll get there.
A while ago I searched without success to find an actual real life photo or video of a Blue Whale. I searched pretty hard too but couldn't find anything better than an illustration of a blue whale next to a man for size comparison. Now though, I found a website called arkive.org with a few videos of the blue whale and the tasmanian tiger.
Unfortunately there's nothing really in the videos to get a proper impression of the size of the whales however I think the size of the waves in the videos gives some perspective.
The principal sponsor of this wonderful website is the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi. The Arabic writing in their logo was beyond my abilities to decipher so I delved a little deeper and found

with the title of the organisation written much more legibly for me
هيئة البيئة - أبوظبي
Thankfully too the website is available in Arabic and English so there's an good opportunity to study. Nice to see funding from the World's largest oil producers for the environment
